Sex
Sex:
-
Physical contact between individuals involving sexual stimulation of the genitals, sexual intercourse; spec.
copulation, coitus.
The difference between male and female, esp. in humans. Now spec. the sum of the physiological and behavioural characteristics
distinguishing members of either sex; (manifestations or consequences of) sexual instincts, desires.
Peter: The trouble with trying to find
enjoyment, delight and intimacy in sex (a) is the hindering baggage that comes with it due to definition (b). There are
significant conditioned expectations of sexual activity that vary enormously between males and females as well as cultural and
religious beliefs, morals and ethics. There exists a veritable madness of conflicting opinions, values, standards and behaviours
ranging from religious and spiritual pious-ness, denial or sacredness to repression, control or transcendence. Despair abounds as
yet another generation is born into ignorance and shame, never quite able to unveil the mystery behind the taboos and beliefs.
Beneath it all lies the shame of our animal-like behaviour and
instinctual drive that entraps women to motherhood, and men to mate (and reproduce) with women and its subsequent entrapment.
Watching animal rituals and mating behaviours, the similarity to human sexual behaviour is very apparent. To be free of all that
nonsense is such an actual freedom and one then enjoys the constant, ever-changing, delightful and sweet intimacy between a man
and a woman that tingles every cell in the body.
For Vineeto and I, when we freed ourselves of all the beliefs and
instincts that had prevented us from living together in peace and harmony, the pure natural delight of freely enjoyed sex was
revealed, step by delicious step. The very process of investigating the Human Condition and putting the issues on the table to be
mutually resolved rather than fearfully coveted, allowed us to penetrate this most personal, most intimate of subjects. More than
this, we also dug deep to tackle the instinctual behaviour patterns that ultimately doom human sex to failure, resulting in
dis-appointment, resentment and eventual abandonment.
What an utter tragedy as one can have such extraordinary sensory delight from the pure
physical sexual play between a man and a woman. It requires, though, a thorough investigation of all the taboos, mystique and
conditioning which have been largely imposed by the priests and gurus – the very same priests and gurus who declare sex to be
sinful or to be eventually transcended – abandoned on the path to the Higher. For centuries they have practiced their denial and
celibacy with monumental hypocrisy and torturous selfishness. They obviously have not a clue when they talk about sex … and yet
it is their Wisdom that we follow! Very curious.
